10 Best Beauty Products to Sell in 2019

#1. Magnetic Eyelashes

While fake eyelashes have been popular for a few years now, it’s pretty apparent that beauty trends like this will continue to grow. Search volume for “fake eyelashes” is steadily growing over time according to Google Trends.

And while “magnetic eyelashes” had an all-time peak in August 2017, they’re beginning to rise again and will likely continue to climb throughout the year. Fake eyelashes are starting to become a staple in most makeup looks.

When marketing beauty products like magnetic eyelashes your focus will likely be on Instagram.

While you can partner with beauty bloggers and create ads to get immediate sales, a stronger long-term strategy would be to create your own Instagram account with different pictures and videos of eye look with your fake eyelashes and other beauty products.

Long-term, this will keep your ad costs low since you’ll have built up your own audience and brand. You can also build a blog on your website so that you can drive organic traffic to your magnetic lashes and other beauty products on your store.

This long-haired colorful wig is one example of a product you can sell on your store. While you can choose to run a beauty products store and sell wigs, many online retailers find that focusing on wigs or extensions works well as a standalone store too.
